It's been a year since I've written here, but not a year since I've thought about writing. After the Newtown shooting, I thought I may need to take a break, but then each news story ended up being a mass shooting, a school shooting, a double homicide, a triple... A celebrity drug overdose, a celebrity suicide, nothing, not even politics gave me the inspiration I was looking for, longing for. And then again, maybe I just got lazy.

But I'm back.

I promised I wouldn't let 2014 roll in without logging in and testing out the old fingertips. Yep, still working, laptop is a year older, but it's still kicking. And I am still here. I never went anywhere. I write something new every day in my head. I yell at talk radio and shake my fist at the news. I shake my head at the ignorance of the world and I cry when innocent people die.

Around and around this world goes, we have no choice but to hang on for the ride. if we choose otherwise, we are defeating the purpose of habitation upon this Earth.
